[DeTomaso] Your opinion is requested... and still looking for stock early 72 seats

My 72 Pre-L fiberglass trunk tray needs to be redone. I have removed the
carpet/felt and it is all clean with no more residue. My rear compartment
has the stock textured undercoating. I was thinking of either redoing the
carpet/felt that I removed since it was in terrible shape -OR- I was
thinking it would blend better and look cooler if I painted it with black
rubberized undercoating. Is this a crazy idea or a good one. Has anyone ever
tried it? I am really leaning on doing it but wanted to get wisdom from the
group. I am NOT planning on smoothing off the texture and make it
mirror-like. It looks awesome that way, but it is not worth the time and
expense personally to me, so keep your response with the stock textured
surface staying as it is beneath the trunk tray.

 

I appreciate your input.

 

I am also still looking for a set on early 72 seats. I can't sell my Hall
Pantera Scheel  seats until I get stock seats. The Scheel seats are nice but
being 6'-3" I need lower seats just to fit. I am not dropping the floors.
